Kyara sighed. Seto Kaiba sure was stotic at times! "Um.." she bit her lip. "When do you wanna start working on the project?"
Kaiba shrugged again. It was as if the whole affair was of little matter to him. He stared at Kyara's face for a long moment. The other blushed. It was kinda weird, having him stare at her like this. Finally, Kaiba gave a short, dismissive sigh. "Tomorrow's Saturday. We can go over to my house and work on the project there."
"Really?"
Seto nodded. "You sure you don't want me to throw something together?"
Kyara frowned slightly. She swore she detected a hint of a laugh in his tone. "Seto Kaiba," she said firmly. "Are trying to tell me something?"
At this, Kaiba gave a small, rare laugh. "No. See you later."

"Y'know, I could have driven to your house, Seto, you didn't need to pick me up." Kyara commented as she got into his car early the next morning.
Kaiba snorted. "Please, I want to get this silly project over with as soon as possible, Kyara. I have better things to do."
Kyara sagged in her seat, stung by his choice of words. Kaiba glanced over at his passenger. They rode for a few minutes in silence.
"I'm sorry." Kaiba finally blurted. "I didn't-"
"No, it's okay. I mean, you ARE the CEO of a-"
"Yea, I know." Kaiba rolled his eyes. "I get reminded of that every day."
Kyara stifled a giggle at Seto's sarcasm. Stotic, yes. But not all the time.
